Mission

My mission as an editor is to bring peace to you and your manuscript. As a longtime editor and a fellow writer, I understand how challenging it can be to get your thoughts on paper in an orderly way that makes sense and is moving, persuasive, and/or entertaining. And I especially understand how challenging the rules of English can be. I love the complexities and intricacies of the English language; I’m a word nerd—and that means you don’t have to be (but I totally love it if you are)!

You’ve done the hard work of gathering your thoughts, organizing them, and expressing them. You’ve pored over your text for hours, days, weeks, months…maybe even years. You’ve had friends, acquaintances, your spouse, your children, and everyone else you trust read it and comment on it, and you’ve revised it again and again and again. And now you finally feel like you’re ready to publish, but you want an expert, a professional to look at it with a fresh eye and a new perspective. Maybe you even want some reassurance because now that the prospect of actually being published looms closer, you’re getting nervous and some self-doubt is creeping up on you.
